Anyone have a locking ring for a QT lock?

Here is a photo of one.

Dave:
I don't have any QT locks that I know of, and I am sure that the locking nuts for all the
standard cam-locks are too small, but I can tell you what may work. These look exactly
like the locking nuts that are used on the conduit & romex adapters, on electrical boxes.
The 1/2" size may work. If not, they have 3/4" as well. If you have a Mom & Pop Hdwe.
near you, they will have singles, for about 25c or less, as apposed to the big-box stores
like Home Depot, which now-a-days come in a package of 6 or more. If I had the right
lock, I would try it out for you, and let you know, as I have a lot of conduit fittings, but
I haven't been in the shop for a few days, because of all the holiday hub-bub.
Merry Christmas, Bill

Bill:

Thanks for the advice.

A forum member sent me a PM and said he has an extra locking ring and is going to send it to me =D>

In the future, if I need one I will check out the electrical conduit supply area at Home Depot.

Thanks

I will probably have a few QT lock parts available in a couple of weeks, after I replace some later locks fitted to my machine using some of the original parts, with original lock sets I have tracked down. I will try to remember to post what I end up with, but if anyone sees this and is hunting for lock parts, send me a message now or again in a couple of weeks.
